“My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?” (Psalm 42:2, NIV)
I was thinking this morning, while I prayed, how my prayer time has mostly become about me. I mean, ofcourse, I pray about/for other people too.
But I need this to be more than a monologue, Lord. I want to enjoy coming before You, I mean I already do. What I’m saying is, tell me more about You, Father. Let’s commune together. What’s on Your heart? What do you like? What are You doing/working out?
Let’s take this quiet time business a lot deeper. You know how I can be selfish. You also know how I can go on and on and on, if You let me. I want to hear You too, Father. I want us to have proper 2 way communion. And yes, I dare to ask, can we have this daily? As often as You want. I’m ready.
Teach me to not just come, dump on You, say amen and go away. Help me patiently listen, and wait to hear You. Keep my motives right – let me not just be about all the things I can get from You.
Take me deeper, take us deeper –
Deeper in our knowledge of who You are and how You love us.
Selah. . . .
